REPUBLICANS—ARE YOU ASSESSED 1
IS YOUR NEIGHBOk ASSESSED ? IS
EYERY SOLDIER FROM YOUR NEIGH
BORHOOD ASSESSED? WILL YOU SEE
TO IT AT ONCE?
Stupendous deceit and bald, shameless lying
can elfct Gu D boat McClellan, be will be elected.
Bat not' otherwise. The Copperhead papers
swarm with lies ; the Ups of Copperhead ora
tors drop lies, as the clouds drop rain. We
bad flattered nnrselves that the pro-slavery par
ty had exhausted itsgreatost mendacity in '56
and’GO. Delusive .hope ! If they lied then,
they hare improved upon the system now. 1
The Chairman of the Copperhead National
Committee, August Belmont, agent of the
Rothchilds, agent of Louis Napoleon, agent of
European aristocracy for the extinction of
republican institutions jh America, bas issued
a proclamation commanding the Copperocracy
of New York to illuminate, celebrate, and ’re
joice over the Copperhead victory iti Pennsyl
vania !
, Now the “ Copperhead victory” in Pennsyl
vania consists in just the following results:
Legislature overwhelmingly Republi
can.
3d—-A majority of not less than 10,000 for
the Republican members of Congress, over the
Copperhead members Jin the entire State.
Aristocrat Belmont has taken the part of
the soldior.wbo .averred^that he had caught a
Tartar.. “ Bring him ip, then,” a aid bis com
mander. '‘Ay, but hd wont letme 1” rejoined
the chopfallen Tartar-catcher.
Now, Copperbcadism was wbipt out in this
State on the 11th of October. We gained four,
probably five, members of Congress, so that
the delegation, which now stands 12 to 12, will
stand 16 Republican to 8 Copperhead, in the
next Congress. We have the Legislature by
an overwhelming -majority ; and we have not
less than 10,000 majority on the whole vote.
Aristocrat Belmont knows, this. He knew
it when he proclaimed a “ Democratic victory
in Pennsylvania.”
, Aristocrat Belmont, in addition to his offices
as Chairman of the McClellan ComtpiUee, and
confidential agent for Louis Napoleon, is a stu
pendous LtAB. ‘
We can but repeat that when these Copper
head leaders, great and small, do not lie, they
no nothing ! I r
Ho.v. Wm. H. Armstrong.— Among the
large brood of lies let loose in this county by
the Yallnndigbammars during the- contest be
tween Wilson and Wright, there was one to
the effect {hat neither Mr. Armstrong nor bis
friends were in good &uth supporting Wilson.
This we branded as a lie at thq lima. It is,on
ly simple justice to, say that Mr. Armstrong
took the field for Wilson and fought manfully,
to the end. The official returns in Lycoming
show that Wilson ran ahead of the local candi
dates. He ran ahead in the other counties be
low the mountains. -All these attempts to mis
represent Mr. Armstrong and bis friends, will
fail. '
In this connexion we may likewise appropri
ately notice the lie about Hon. Ja's. T. Hals
our present member of Congress. The Cop
perheads alleged that Mr. Hale was supporting
Wright. We branded the story as a lio at the
time, because we had the best evidence of its
entire falsity. Mr. Hale is not comprehended
by the Copperheads, for the reason that he is
incapable of falsehood or treachery, either in
word or act. He, supported Wilson from first
to last.
We hear that certain of the Copperheads in
and about this borough, profess to entertain
lively apprehensions of a civil war at the north
if Little Mao is defeated. Well, gentlemen,
Little Mao will he defeated. Many of yon ad
mit it. Why not inaugurate the war now 7 if
you mean war, strike. We never heard of a
Republican whining over the probability of
civil war if'Mr. Lincoln’ should be defeated.
The Republicans do not propose to inaugurate
civil war for any such reason. If the Copper
heads do, why not proceed ? Ton can do'bet
ter, gentlemen. You can submit to the will of
the people.
And the wHI of flw people ’irill prevail.

‘the TIO (5 A CO UNIT A GITATOE.
REPUBLICANS OF TIOGA:' The lltb ot
October was a da j of glorious victories for the
Union, for on that day the three great States of
Pennsylvania, Ohio,, and Indiana declared,
themselves unmistakably for Abraham Lincoln
and peace through a vigorous prosecution of
the war. The loyal men of those States did
well. They will do better on the Bth day of
November. Tioga County must ingrease her
majority of 2,200 to 2,500 at tbe very least.
That, with the army vote, will give Lincoln
and Johnson not less than 3,300 majority;in
Tioga.
The question now is, how largo a majority
shall Pennsylvania give for Lincoln and John
son? It should be overwhelming; and it will
be overwhelming 1 if we of the. Union strong
holds do our whole duty. Wemusido oiir duty-
Tbe eyes of tbe whole country are open us.
"We still, remain the Banner County of the
■State. ■■-'We have that reputation to., sustain
and*it must be sustained. To whom much is
given, much is required. We have many com
petitors. Wo must distance them again on the
Bth pf. November, .
And now, there iar.bnt, one. way to, do this.
It-is theold 1 way,- byWORK !■ Every Union
man must go to work, and work as if the fate
of the republic rested with him alone. There
must be no idle hours—no idle men. /We are
to nobly rescue the country from irretrievable
ruin, or we are to stand by, consenting to its
moral and political death. Choose and
your choice is between lasting victory over tbe
blackest treason or base sarretider to it.
Jf a, single Union voter fails to vote on the
Bth day of November next, except, in case of
severe sickness, he will repent in sackcloth and
ashes in the coming time. Some neglects are
unpardonable. That would be one of them.
Sib Theoppilcs Thunderbolt was a great
trumpet among penny whistles. Copperhead
orators and scribblers appear to have dropped
(be acquaintance of the blood Tarveydrop,
and to Have taken lesaons-in " deportment” of
Sir Theopbilus. In view of the result of the
October elections they was wroth and vent hor
rible threateninge. Up to the day of election, i
they claimed the army vote in their favor. On
being-crowded oh the home vote they admitted
that the army vote might defeat them. In
view of the fact that about 90 in every hund
red of the soldiers voting, voted the Republic
an ticket, they complain that but one kind of
tickets were sent t<Tthe army ! We find this
most ludicrous colmplaint in every Coppery
sheet we open since the army vote was declared.
Poor fellows I did they expect the Union men
to peddle their'tickets ? If they 'don't mean
that, what d<j they mean V
And now, baffled and crest-fallen, these sym
resistance to the majority." Well,
that would be consistent; becanse-p- ’
Ist—their great chief, Jefferson Davis, de
clares that the Soatb seceded to get rid of the
rule of the majority. And—
2d—it will be in keeping with their course
in 1860. They then threatened all manner of
violence if the people, in the exercise of their
sovereign will, should see fit to elect Abraham
Lincoln.
Have the; jet to learn that freemen cannot
be deterred from casting their rotes as they
please f Being traitors yourselves, do yon re
gard the Union men of the 1 North as Very cow
ards ?
Yon are at yoqr old tricks. Yoa'are forward
■to blaster and threaten. If it is permitted to
stop there, well and good. If not, remember
that the Almighty destroyed, utterly, the vile
creatures that peopled Sodom. They left no
seed. Marat, and Danton, and Ro
bespierre. The will of the people shall be re
spected. The majority shall rule. The minor
ity shall enjoy, in reasonable peace, every’con
stitutional right guarantied to the citizen.
Bat the few shall not rule the many. The
minority most not essay to do by violence that
which they cannot do legitimately. We take
£p no Coppery sheet that does not threaten a
“ free fight” in,the event of defeat ia Korea
her. Very wellpat your houses in order.'
We just picked up three Copperhead papers,
and each assures its patrons that the “ Dem
ocracy". have won glorious victories in Indiana,;
Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Now each of the cd
itora of these papers wrote with full knowl-;
edge of the following facts :
i Ist—That ladiaaq bss jaet elected Gov. Mbr-.
tjm, Union, by over 20,000 majority, and 8 Un
ion Congressmen' out of 11—a loss of 4to the
Copperheads.
■ 2d-*-That the Union men of Ohio ba'rs jost,
carried 1 the State by over 80,000 majority, elec- 1
ting 16 out of its 19 Congressmen—a gain of
11 on the delegation as it now stands.
3d—That Pennsylvania has just gone for the
Union by a majority of not less than 15,000 on
the whole vote, electing 16 of'jfhe 24 Congress
men—a gain of 4on the delegation as it now
stands. Further, it is now pretty certain that
Ketahem is elected over Dennison in the Lu
zerne district, and Strouse and Coffroth are in
serious danger of being, laid oat also. This
would give ns 19 of the 24 Congressmen—a
gain of 7on the delegation as it now stands.
So, these Copper editors stand convicted of
lying like dogs, and a bad breed of do<*s at
that.
We invite attention to the articles on the
outside of this paper. Gen. Butler’s letter to
Gen. Cameron is a most excellent argument in
favor of Mr. Lincoln’s re-election. The speech
of that prominent McClellan man, Je&. Davie,
delivered ot Macon, Georgia, will show to the
world the. mendacity of the Chicago platfoim
when it declares the war for the Union a fail
ure. The address of the Union National Com
mittee is a remarkably qble document. We
commend them to all men who desire to know
Read, and hand to your neighbor.
The State election is a close thing on tbe
home vote. Official returns from 64 counties
in which the majorities stand as follows;
Union Majorities, - • 39,837.
Rebel Majorities, - - 39,813.
Union majority on home vote, 24
The Cnion majority on the army vote, up to
last Friday i was 10,27? . The returns yet to
be made will increase this majority to 15,000.
The Copperheads do not get quite one vote in
five among the soldiers. We predict that (?.
E. McClellan will not get one vote In ten. On
ly shout one-third of tbe Pennsylvania soldiers
voted, for the reason that many regiments were
not reached by the Commissioners in season.
This will bo remedied in November, ond the
returns will show 30,000 majority for Lincoln
and Johnson in Pennsylvania. Hurra for tbe
soldier hoys, with their brave hearts and will
ing hands I

Sublihely impudent are the.disciplcs of St,'
Vallandigham 1 They, and Pd others, voted
against "the soldiers in August, and then went
up and down the streets, like Bedlamites, cry
ing up'that the soldiers would vote for their
candidates I They abused and villified the sol
diers all summer, voted against extending the
elective franchise .to thenflh August, and beg
ged on their knees for their votes in October!
And that is dignity, is it f or consistency, or
even common decency, is it?
It is sublimated impudence : it is meanness

of an impoverished spirit. Wby, that party is

News from Qon. Sheridan’s headqnarters, at
midnight, was received to.the effect that the
enemy surprised onr forces yesterday morning,
driving the command in some confusion this
side of Newton, capturing artillery and pris
oners.
Sheridan arrived on the field, reorganized
drove the enemy beyond Strasburg,
! capturing, it is'reportod-43 pieces of artillery,
!100 wagons, and some 2,000 prisoners. The
'rout of the enemy is said to be complete. This
is not official but I think it reliable.
J. D. Stevenson, Brigadier General
A few minutes later the following official re
port of his victory was received from Major
General Sboridan:
.Debar Creek, Oct. 19,10 P. M.
Lieut. General Grant, City Point
I have the honor to report that my army at
Cedar Creek was attacked this A, M. before
daylight, and my left was turned and driven
in confusion, with the loss of twenty pieces of
artillery. I hastened from Winchester,, where
I was on my return from Washington, and
found the two armies between Middletown and
Newton, having been driven back about four
miles. Ihe-e took the matter in hand, and
quickly united the corps, formed a compact line
of battle just in time to repulse an attack of
the enemy, which was handsomely done at
1 P. M.
At3P. M., after some change of the caval
ry from the left to the right flank, I attacked,
with great vigor, driving and routing the enc-'
my, capturing, according to the last report,
forty-tbree pieces of artillery and very many
prisoners.' Ido not yet know the number of
my casualties, or loss of the enemy.
Wt gons, horses, ambulances, and caissons
-in large numbers are in our possession. They
also burned some of the trains.
General Ramseur is a prisoner in our hands,
severely and perhaps mortally wounded.
I have to regret the loss of General Bidwell,
killed, and Generals Wright, Grover, and
Russell wounded—Wright slightly wounded.
Affairs at times looked badly, but by the
gallantry of our brave officers and men disas
ter has been turned into a splendid victory.—
Darkness again interfered jo shut off great re
suits.
I now occupy Straaburg. As soon as ob
tained I will send yon farther particulars.
P. 11. Sheridan, Major Qen’K
Tbe battle was fought on the same day . [the
19th of tbc month] that witnessed Sheridan's
victory in September.
What forces and their numbers-were opposed
to General Sheridan are not yet reported to
the department, hot the boldness, vigor, and
success of the attack strongly indicate that
heavy reinforcements bad been seat from Rich
mondwith the expectation of falfillin Long
street’s boast “ to smash up Sheridan.” Long
street was known to be in the Valley, and had
assumed command of the rebel army, and con
fident hopes of an overwhelming disaster to
tbe Union army were boastfully expressed for
several days hack by the rebel adherents in
/Washington and Baltimore.
J Edwin M, Stanton,
Secy of War.
Baltimore, Oct. 20—Wa hare no additional
particulars from the Valley, but all ,we hear is
to the effect that Sheridan’s victory over Long
street* was moat complete. The number of
guns captured, is understood to include the re
capture cf those which were lost in the mor
ning. The rebels are reported to have' contin
ued their retreat rapidly np the Valley, being,
with their loss of trains and artillery, in no
condition to mate-a successful stand against
Sheridan’s vibtoriqds troops. ,
Sen. Grant’s appreciation of the victory at
Cedar Creek is expressed in the following dis
patch
Cm' Point, Oct. 20, —8 o’clock p. m.
Bon. E. M. Stanton, Sec’y of War ;
I had a salute of 100 guns from each of the
armies here fired in honor of Sheridan’s last
victory. Turning what had bid fair to be a
Disaster into'a glorious Tictory, stamps Sher
idan what I have always thought him, one of
the ablest of generals. TJ. S. Grant,
The Medical Director reports that seven hun
dred and seventy slightly wounded have reach
